It's quite the respectable thing now, everybody“ doing lt-tue world and his wife and children. There are. oi course, a lot oi pgg- ple who know what they are doing, Know the possibilities and count the risk, who know the right time to buy - and when to sell. It has taken themn long time, and it has pmbably cost them considerable money, to attain u Beneral knowledge of the stock mar- ket. But on the other hand stands an unlimited num' of people who have taken a chance with their mon- ey, who still do not know what its all about. Most of them think you fllllply hand the broker some money and tell him to buy mty shares of Rubberoid Ball Bearings and in aday or two you go around with a truck and collect. “Of course, you have to watch these brokers. If you don't keep your eye on them they will shove the market down and then phone you saying your margin is gone. They never say wiiere it's gone —Just gone. Mysterious people, these brokers. However, Jones tells me that s. friend of his who knows Smith says Smith made s. thousand last week in Rubberoid Ball Bearings, so why shouldn't I?" How many of them, or rather how few, know whit makes the wheels go around; what makes the tickers, tick? What ls this stock exchange anyway? ~ The stock exchange is a hig complicated piece oi machinery that works according to laws oi its own makin . It is neither a limited com- pany, nor a corporation, nor a trust. It ls an association of private indi- vlduals who have agreed to do busi- ness among ‘hemselvw according to rules and regulations made by them- Clrlfiflmrl-ltrnww nnaonrifi isTocK MARKET ‘ PVhat Is It ? iii- selves. and from which there is al- lowed no deviation. These laws are hard and fast-they must be adher- ed to, they govern the business be- havior oi all members and the pen- alty ior any infraction is drastic. The laws that govern a, member broker in his dealings, withhls clients and with other brokers. are so bind- ll18-—Yet so simple, that no Federal or State Government could enforce theml The association provides, among other things, a place and the neces- 5317 " .v l0 l?‘ i among th mselves, on‘ a strictly cash basislsnd ttlement in iull must be made according to fixed rules. There are no margin accounts here. The members appoint governors and com- mittees. whose business it is lo see that all rulesrare carried out. For example, a committee. fixes the scale oi commissions that a broker may charge his clients, so manycents per ShSIQ-BO more, no less. And other committees enforce other rules that govern the broker.’ Now things begin to get a bitmore complicated. The Stock exchange ls a market place, but in place of but- ter and eggs, securities are dealt in. All kinds oi securities, some good. some better, others not so good. rail- roads, banks, industries public utili- ties, motors, oils, rubbers, steels, cop- pers and what not. Before a stock is listed for trading on “The Big Board" the oiilclals of the companies concerned have toan- swer to a lot oi questions to the list- ing committee oi the exchange. 1i the answers are satisfactory then the ALA process gives the stock a certain standing, or respectability. But the fact oi a stock not being listed is not proof that it is not all that it should be. There are many unlisted securi- ties that have equal financial stand- ing with the listed ones-but, unlist- ed stocks are another story. The brokers do not ilx the prices. nor push them up, or bummer them down. The trading public, pools. trusts, etc, attend to that, and on the principal o! supply and demand. The stock exchange guarantees noth- ing. If a person wants to tradt.~—all right. If not-all right again. Blam- ing the stock exchange for losses suffered due to a decline in securi- ties purchased is wasted effort. The exchange is merely a meeting place to facilitate the buying and selling oi securities for the trading public. istock Qrrgtations HALIFAX.

Organization: Canadian Investors Corporation, Limited, has been formed under the lavas. of the Province of Ontario as an investment corporation of the management type with broad powers to buy, sell; trade in, pledge and hold securities of any kind, to invest money at interest, , to participate in enterprises, syndicates and underwrit- ings, to engage in activities kindred and subservient thereto, and to exercise such other of its charter powers as its board of directors may from time to time determine. It is designed to obtain for the holders of its securities the benefits of experienced investment management and constant supervision of their funds, and to afiord parti- cipation in a diversification of selected securities and Initial Capital: The corporation will e mmenc business with at least $2,000,000 in cash, representing the pro- ceeds of the sale of 80,000 shares of its capital stock to McLeod, Young, Weir 8L Co., Limited, at $25 per share. Of these 80,000 shares, 4,000 shares are being purchased ' for $100,000 cash by McLeod, Young, Weir 6L Co., Limited, for its own account.

The requirement for the annual earning of the net profits of 7% shall be cumulative; that is, should the said 7% be not earned in any year, the de- ficiency is, for the purpose of determining the compensa- tion of the manager, to be deducted in computing the net profits of succeeding years. Operating ProvisionszThe charter or the management contract contain provisions to the following effect: J. The board of directors is empowered co set up reasonable reserves.
